In the
early hours of May 10th, 1918, seven Handley Pages of No. 214 Squadron cooperated
with Naval forces in the attempt to block Ostend harbor. The bombers dropped
six 550-lb, fifty-three 112-lb, and twenty-six 25-lb bombs on the German
batteries. The same squadron was requested on May 16th to bomb Bruges on
every possible occasion, but by the end of the month No. 214 had only six
serviceable Handley Pages and the target suffered less than it ought to
have done.
